    Default state elections officials for security

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/state-e...rity-concerns/



    PHILADELPHIA -- The top state election officials from throughout the U.S. are gathering this weekend in Philadelphia amid fresh revelations of Russia's interference in the 2016 presidential election and just before President Donald Trump holds one-on-one talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
    The annual gathering has typically been a low-key affair highlighting such things as voter registration and balloting devices. This year's meetings of the National Association of Secretaries of State and the National Association of State Election Directors are generating far greater interest.
    The conference is sandwiched between Friday's indictments of 12 Russian military intelligence officers alleged to have hacked into Democratic party and campaign accounts, and Mr. Trump's long-awaited meeting with Putin.
    Mr. Trump has never condemned Russia over its meddling in the 2016 elections despite the findings of all top U.S. intelligence agencies. In the past, Mr. Trump has reiterated Putin's denials, but this week said he would bring up the issue when the two meet Monday in Finland.

    This happened under Obama's watch. Not only did he do nothing about it, he actively prevented anything from being done about it. You have no credibility with your maniacal ravings.

    US president Barack Obama warned that America will "take action at a time and place of our choosing" over Vladimir Putin's hacking of the US election.

    In a dramatic escalation of the hacking row President Obama told National Public Radio: "I think there is no doubt that when any foreign government tries to impact the integrity of our elections we need to take action. And we will. At a time and place of our own choosing. Some of it may be explicit and publicised. Some of it may not be."

    He added: "Mr Putin is well aware of my feelings about this because I spoke to him directly about it."

    Mr Obama was referring to a "candid and blunt" meeting with the Russian president at the G20 summit in China in September.

    With Trump, a year and a half later, it's like drawing teeth to get him to admit that it EVEN HAPPENED.

    Obama lost all credibility when he was caught promising to be even more flexible toward Russian interests. I don't take his word seriously on the matter.

    It's because they know the blue wave has fizzled on the shoals of reality. They are desperate for votes.
